LAZARUS_ SAYS: “dying is an art, like everything else. i do it exceptionally well. i do it so it feels like hell. i do it so it feels real. i guess you could say i've a call. it's easy enough to do it in a cell. it's easy enough to do it and stay put. it's the theatrical comeback in broad day to the same place, the same face, the same brute amused shout: 'a miracle!' that knocks me out. there is a charge for the eyeing my scars, there is a charge for the hearing of my heart- it really goes. and there is a charge, a very large charge for a word or a touch or a bit of blood or a piece of my hair on my clothes. i am your opus, i am your valuable, the pure gold baby that melts to a shriek. i turn and burn. do not think i underestimate your great concern. ash, ash- you poke and stir. flesh, bone, there is nothing there- a cake of soap, a wedding ring, a gold filling. god, lucifer beware beware. out of the ash i rise with my red hair and i eat men like air.
